1976-2009 Wedded Bliss

On the eve of our 33rd wedding anniversary I came across this quote that is worth posting here for the world to see and ponder. All you that know me, know how far I have to go, but you don't realize how far I have come due to a loving, supporting spouse and the influence of the holy spirit (against my will most of the time).

“Nothing is more important than marrying the right person, at the right time, in the right place, and by the right authority.” We hope you will avoid too quick courtships. It is important that each of you become acquainted with the person you plan to marry, that there is certainty that each of you is looking down the same pathway with the same eternal objectives in mind.

By the grace of God, I did marry the right person (one who shared by faith in God) and in the right place (God's Holy House), at the right time (when I was an adult and prepared to take on fatherhood), and by the right authority (God's Holy Priesthood).

I am proud to say that this most important decision was carefully considered and carried out according to God's plan by each of our children. For that we are eternally grateful.

Chris
